Hey everyone.

@ Ako: I read your journal today. One of the moments it comes handy to have a facebook acount...;-), I like your journal style and I´m impressed about your english... My english is okay to do conversation, but I doubt, I could write stories in english...

Thanks Asla, and like I said, if you find any grammar/spelling/whatever error, please let me know I think I'm overusing short sentences and infinitives. I know nothing about English grammar to be honest.
Thou short sentences give some dynamics to my character's intelectual processes. A mix of ideas, reminiscenses, decisions. Kind of chaos like in my own head.
Now it's just a bunch of Shepard's memories abd reflections, I'll try to write something with "movement".

My kind of girl. But after a while here this stuff gonna externalize itself. Welcome!
(Tell us something about your Shepard!)

Well my Shepard...her name is Shayenne. Age: 32, from Earth, never knew her parents. War-hero! She's an Adept. As for her character: she is a para-gade

In my head she is friendly to those she cares about and she is fair. Yet she had no trouble killing Fist. She doesn't give a flying rat about people like him and depending on her mood she either kills them or lets them live. She is open-minded, interested in aliens and their culture and history. She is very blunt, tough and addicted to coffee! Being a war-hero got her all kind of benefits. One was getting free coffee at Seattle's Best whenever she visits Earth plus ENOUGH coffee supplies WHEREVER she goes. For free as well of course xD

I created her after what I think is a tough woman. I think she is very beautiful, yet not pretty. The only thing her and I have in common are haircolour and hairdo.

I have a thing for green eyes and a face that shows personality is ten times more beautiful to me than a face that looks just pretty. What else do you want to know? XD

The reason why I have big troubles reading fanfic is that I used to be a beta-reader for A LOT of fanfiction stories a few years back. Mostly Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, LOST, Battlestar Galactica (new series) and SG1/SG:A. In the end I just got tired of a) the same stories, BAD GRAMMAR - I'm the worst spell checker you can imagine, for both English and German when it comes to stories, c) stories that not only bored me out of my mind but also were an insult to every readers intelligence and d) off-character characters!

I have to admit, it might be different for a RPG video game since we all have different ideas of our Shepard, but the characters around us are still the same. So I just don't see Kaidan being the total bad-ass tough guy that cheats on Shep with EVERY girl that comes along and stuff like that, if you know what I mean. The list is endless. I can be a pain in the ass when it comes to fanfiction. If I read it and am asked what I think about it, there is only two options: 1) I don't say anything at all which means I didn't like it for one of the before mentioned reasons. 2.) I am telling you the truth about it. And if that doesn't start with "hey I like it" then believe me, you wish I'd gone for option #1.

There is only one fanfiction that really managed to absolutely AMAZE me and that was Harry Potter and the Golden Fortress, which was a fan's attempt of writing her own 7th Harry Potter story after the Half-Blood Prince was released. That story was the BEST I have ever read!

So I am very torn about reading ME fanfic.

Morning Oct, if you have' tread Iunctio by Sinrvaal then you should read that before Exitus.  It's her ME1 story.

Morning Shen, that's exactly what she told me to do when I asked her too! So I'm on that one hehehe

And I think that I should just point out that so far it's a very enjoyable read reserve the big words for when 'm finished with it

[Nightodie]

Morning Ako!



@ Shenzi - Kass' stuff is good I will have to add her to the list!

[Sialater]

Morning, y'all. No I haven't finished the smut of aPoV yet.

[Shenzi]

Morning Sia



Do we need to send breakfast down to the gutter? I can bring something with me as I'm passing through.

[Nightodie]

Morning Sia!

[Nightodie]

Morning Sia!

[Nightodie]

Darn double post - sorry iPhone



If we're going to the gutter i'll got the coffee!

LMAO, maybe.  They can't keep their hands to themselves.

[Sialater]

And Sage? It's a plot.

[jillyfae]

Morning thread!

I'd like to add Kirjailija's Standard Issue Life and Eilam Wordsmith's Carry On to the fic rec's, both of which have the added bonus of being done.

@Night: Next time you update your list, could you add Lady Winde (http://ladywinde.deviantart.com/) to the art section at the bottom? She doesn't do exclusively ME stuff, but she used to be much more active on the thread, and we still link her art a lot.

Like this one:

[Nightodie]

Morning Jilly!



I can certainly do that for you my dear when I get home,

it is so totally a plot. 

As i cannot fathom why two intelligent people who were in love and had a sense of humor and nice things to say to each other would fall into the mess that was Horizons all by themselves, it must be a plot!

*raises fist*



this is one of my favorites. i feel all warm and fuzzy every time i see it.

I think the forum rules say we're not supposed to link directly to adult content, Sia. Cause Fort always just links to her ff.net account and then tells people to check the link there to aff.net. (Cause otherwise, I'd ask to add ExtraJuicy's "That Blurred Line" to the list too.) And Daewan, if we decide we can't link to AFF, what's your username over there? I'll go find you.

eta:  You're welcome Sage.  And thanks for your story.  I agree, it has to be a plot.  (Or they're both just temporarily brain-damaged.  I loved making Chakwas call them blithering idiots.  Cause as written?  They are.)

eta2:  And maybe we could ask Night to just add a note at the end of the list... if interested and over 18, the following authors are on aff... *shrugs*  (I just love giving you more work, Night! *hugs*)

You can't link, but they can be on the list.  Maybe a link to aff's home page and their author name?

[Nightodie]

Morning Dae!



Oops didn't know- will have to fix! When I get home

[Shenzi]

Exitus update is early this week http://www.fanfictio...t/s/5809961/15/

Yes, on the public forum, we are not supposed to link directly to aff.net or anything like that.  Please don't!

On the KAAS thread, my link is buried in there somewhere.  It's Sinnerman, by the way

[Nightodie]

Tell me & I will fix it!

[Nightodie]

OMG Dae I love The Renegade Adored!!!!

[Nightodie]

I can put it in KAAS - I have the list there too
